p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:center" align="center"Zoe hated them so bad. It was like a fire twisting inside her. It had to be Aphrodite, didn't it? She hated dresses, make up and perfume. Why couldn't she be the daughter of Athena or something, but no, the gods were cruel. Drew, the leader of the Aphrodite cabin had immediately seen something in her that she had disliked. Drew had made sure that no one was allowed to go near Zoe. Now Drew was making sure that was rid of her for a while. Guess who they (In other word, just Drew as no one was allowed to say anything against her) had decided to send on the quest. Zoe. So Zoe showed up to the training ground at 8:01 am to the training grounds and found herself face to face with Chiron./p
p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:center" align="center""Your late" He said with an angry tone in his voice. She glanced around to see Theron, Eva, Hay, Jacob, Clover, Max from the Hephaestus cabin all lined up for an obstacle course. Before Chiron could say anymore, Eva ran over from the end of the line./p
p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:center" align="center""She can't be expected to know her way around the camp already." Eva said, slightly breathless. At that moment, Zoe knew she'd found a friend. Eva grabbed Zoe's hand and literally dragged her to the end of the line. Zoe watched as the other five demigods and Clover completed the obstacle course with ease. When it came to her turn, she jogged up to the first obstacle, a hurdle. She tried to leap over it but she knocked it over. She went for the second and the third. She knocked them over too. Next was the climbing wall this looked fun until you noticed the lava pit underneath it. Zoe leapt onto the wall, well; she would have if her jump was not to short. Luckily the lava was on the other side and she just grazed her knee. She failed each obstacle as it came until the end, where she could finally stop her P.E (Physical Embarrassment). Okay, so maybe her athletic ability was not her strong point. But she had plenty of other strengths like… stuff that, how about her friendliness? Next training point was to be your special gift. Clover was sent to the bodyguard training with the other satyr while everyone else was sat down in front of Chiron. Jacob was assigned the task of practising illuminating his body, as he found he could do with a little practise, Eva was sent to the medical area to practice her healing ability. Max was sent to the weapons making system and Hay was dismissed to the Hephaestus cabin to help teach her they control she needs over her fire ability. When it was just Zoe and Theron left, Theron told Chiron about his archery power. Chiron reasoned that Theron and Eva had gotten medicinal and archery powers, Apollo's attributes because Artemis and Apollo were twins and were very close to each other. Theron asked why the Minotaur they ran into a few days ago didn't disintegrate immediately after being struck by Theron's / "Because, by the description you gave me, those arrows are the Arrows of Justice. If struck by one in the heart; will kill you if your purposes are unjust or evil but will pass right through you if you mean well." Chiron replied. So Theron was then sent off to the archery grounds to practice with the Apollo cabin. Zoe sat uncomfortably at Chiron's feet. He gazed down on her and she stood, just not to seem so small and insignificant./p
p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:center" align="center""What can you do?" He asked her./p
p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:center" align="center""I don't know," replied Zoe,/p
p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:center" align="center""I was kinda hoping you would tell me that."/p
p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:center" align="center""No, child" Chiron responded/p
p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:center" align="center""That is for you to figure out."/p
p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:center" align="center"Zoe pondered on these words for a while after she had been sent to help Max out at the kiln. She handed him tools with absent minded. She dropped one and they both leant down to pick it up. Zoe found her hand on top of Max's as they both grasped at the fallen tool. Images of a beautiful girl flashed before her eyes and Max stared at her as if he'd seen a ghost./p
p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:center" align="center""How… How did you do that?" Max asked her in awe. Zoe looked down at herself and saw nothing different./p
p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:center" align="center""You look so much like my late girlfriend, Emily" He said. Of course, the name meant nothing to Zoe but she still was shocked. She left the forge and went straight to Chiron with the information./p
p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:center" align="center""I have only ever met one other demigod with this power. You ever heard of Helen of Troy?" Chiron asked,/p
p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:center" align="center""Well, just like you, she was able to sense a person's deepest desire and then impersonate it. I told you you'd figure it out." Zoe smiled at his comments. She felt special now, unique. Zoe, the great beauty. She liked that name./p
p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:center" align="center"But Chiron hadn't finished./p
p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:center" align="center""But, do you also remember what she caused. A war. This gift comes with great danger. I think we should put you in a cabin of males and see how many you can get to dance like a chicken. For practice, of course." Chiron chuckled. Zoe smirk at the thought of a band of boys jumping up and down, flapping their arms like wings./p
p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:center" align="center""Would it work on girls too?" Zoe asked Chiron/p
p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:center" align="center""No, just boys because you impersonate the person they love and you can't change your gender."/p
p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:center" align="center""Oh well" Zoe headed off towards the Ares cabin, the cabin with the most boys./p
p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:center" align="center"Zoe arrived at the Ares cabin to find it empty so she decided to go ask Eva if she knew where they were. Eva was still in the medical tent with a wounded Apollo demigod. Eva looked up as Zoe walked in./p
p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:center" align="center""Have you seen the Ares cabin? I can't seem to find them anywhere." Zoe asked./p
p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:center" align="center""They have gone on guard around my cabin" The injured guy said. Eva shushed him and continued with the white glow that surrounded the boy. As Zoe watched the cuts and bruises faded and the pink in his cheeks appeared. Zoe decided to try her knew ability. She reached out a hand to help him up. She immediately saw images of a blonde haired girl with stunning green eyes. She focussed on the image and the Apollo demigod's eyes widened in surprise./p
p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:center" align="center""Where are they emexactly/em?" She said seductively/p
p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:center" align="center""T-They are h-hidden around the c-cabin" The boy stuttered. Zoe dropped the illusion and headed towards the door. Eva switched her gaze between the two of them and ran to catch up with Zoe. /p
p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:center" align="center""What did you just do?" She asked. Zoe smiled and told her about her new found power. Eva just stared at her in awe. When they arrived at the Apollo cabin, as expected, there was no one in sight. When they approached the door, a girl stood from behind the bushes. Recognising Eva as a famous child of Artemis, she signalled to a bush and a whole troupe of campers appeared. All female./p
p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:center" align="center" "Where are all the guys?" Zoe asked. The lead girl replied with one chilling word./p
p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:center" align="center""Taken"/p
